Quoted from Ivanhoe:

Has anyone ever heard of Stern making a fresh run off toppers or parts based on these message boards? I'm losing faith...you would figure for the price of these machines they would come through for the owners, especially when there's a high demand.

While in rare cases (like Beatles) they will make another run If they still have the license rights many like GB were a limited run so I wouldn't hold your breath. They actually did come through for their customers on this only you had to order it 5 Years ago when they released the game! Late to the party you often miss out.

Quoted from Zzap:

Been working on some 3d modelling, with a view to 3d print parts for a topper. Some other options I had thought of were using bent acrylic for the light bar lenses, but I just don't have the tools or skills to do that cleanly. So for now my I'm considering 3d printing the coloured lenses using translucent filament printed fairly thinly to allow the light to shine through - something like this:

Looks good. Would strongly suggest sticking with formed plexiglass and back stray. You will never get a decent look with that Sun filament.
